Rhetorical questions are those that, according to time and local condition, have a function, beyond rhe gaining awareness and information. In addition to having an interrogative structure, these sentences imply another meaning as the secondary meaning. But in some cases, according to a special textual context, the existence of one or more weak implicit meaning or meanings between the semantic superstructure in rhetorical questions and main implicit meaning, can be proved and caught. These weak implicit meanings can neither be ignored nor be considered as the main secondary meaning. Based upon that, the problem which is stated in this research is that, with regarding to the possibility of catching such implicit meaning(s) from rhetorical questions , what is the nature and statuse of these additional implicit questions? And assuming acceptance of their existence, whether the production of meaning in rhetorical questions is still instantly? or according to the proposed theory in this research, the production meaning approach in rhetorical questions includes some processes and levels?
The approach of this research is analytic-applied approach and case study in some poems of prominant persian poets that there is a positinal stop in the structure of these poems. The results of this research reveals that , based on the author's prediction, the production of meaning in rhetorical questions has a process approach with three levels, in which, a second meaning layer is produced between superstructure and main implicit meaning (third semantic layer), that can be named as mediator semantic layer.

The Historical Ashura books are historical reflections of the Ashura event and they are expressed in the form of narration. The application of new theories of literary criticism in the analysis of historical provides a better understanding of the narrative context of these works. The purpose of this study is to introduce an unknown Ashura historical book and its narratology from Todorov's point of view. This article tries to examine the syntactic level of narration in the book Sar-e-Asrar in a descriptive-analytical way. So that narratives better illustrates the narrative structure of such works. Todorov's narrative analysis is one of the most prominent structuralist approaches that deals with manifestations such as syntactic representation. According to the findings of the research, the narration with its developments, propositions, etc., which show the syntactic manifestation of the narration, has advanced the design of the narration. In terms of linguistic structure, the murder is based on the traits and actions of the characters. From a syntactic point of view; It has ten basic enhancements that include a minor enhancement.

This article has been written with the aim of how Rumi expresses in the face of Quranic verses and narrations and the quality of using rhetorical tricks in explaining mental concepts and mystical terms. The authors first read Rumi's Masnavi by examining verses from six books in a random manner and analyzed interpretive metaphors based on the theory of cognitive semantics, after stating the theory of semantic semantics and conceptual metaphor according to this theory, among the forms of conceptual metaphor, ontological metaphor was examined and the evidences of interpretive metaphors have been analyzed in three branches of metaphor by interpreting Quranic verses and hadiths, by interpreting mystical allegories and terms, and finally metaphor by interpreting Masnavi anecdotes. In this study, library method and content analysis were the most effective in interpreting mystical terms and allegories. This indicates that Rumi has described his mystical concepts and mystical experiences after their interpretation in order to objectify them, in the name of objective writings to convince the audience and express mystical emotions. In this process, in some interpretations, he has sometimes described one mental thing with another mental thing or an objective phenomenon with another objective thing.

1. Introduction
The current research was conducted based on the views of Lakoff and Johnson, two important theorists in the field of semantics.  Cognitive metaphors play an important role in conveying meanings and perception of abstract concepts.  Cognitive metaphors are structured in various formats, each of which in some way conceptualizes and makes the language knowledge understandable; among these structures are conceptual metaphors with its sub-branches; that is, ontological, structural and metaphorical metaphors. The authors, however, have analyzed conceptual metaphors of the ontological type in Rumi's Masnavi.
Research question:
The main question of this research is that, based on the theory of cognitive semantics, which sub-branch of conceptual metaphor did Molavi use the most in using interpretive metaphor to objectify mental concepts?  Also, what are different formats of interpretive metaphors in Mawlavi's Masnavi and which type has been most frequent?

2. Literature Review
Regarding interpretive metaphor, which is rare in the field of theorizing, we can only refer to Modiri and Malmir (2015), in which the narrative and literary aspects of the interpretations of Molavi's poetry have been analyzed.  Also, Malmir and Maleki (2014) have examined the narrative and interpretation aspects of Persian poetry. The present article, which has analyzed the interpretive metaphors in Rumi's Masnavi based on the theory of cognitive semantics, is a new and novel research, and no research was found specifically on this topic.
    

3. Methodology
This article, which was done using library method based on data analysis and description, proves the effectiveness of cognitive semantic theory and the contemporary theory of metaphor in objectifying the abstract and deep mystical concepts in Mawlawi's Masnavi.

4. Results
To make his mental concepts and mystical experiences more objective after his interpretations, Rumi described them with objective names to convince the audience and express his mystical emotions. In this process, in some interpretations, he sometimes described one mental thing with another mental thing or one objective phenomenon with another objective thing.
